 | | large MOC: camel w/rider —Judy Miller
|
| | | I've been working on and off since last October on a camel with rider, dimensions 8"w x 22"l x 30" high. I thought a camel would be a challenge because the legs are so spindly; this is the first piece I've built with a Technic armature (mostly a (...)

| | | | | Judy, Just saw this on Brickshelf. Beautiful! I especially like the camel's head and the blanket. I think this is my favorite of your creations except maybe the phoenix. Bruce (21 years ago, 4-Aug-03, to lugnet.build.sculpture)

| | | | | (...) Judy- That is absolutely beautiful! The legs look perfect, and I'm sure they're sturdy as well--the intricacy of the patterns is really excellent set against the constantcy of the camel's tone. Any indication of how extensive the armature is? (...) (21 years ago, 5-Aug-03, to lugnet.build.sculpture)

| | | | | | (...) There's a kind of trestle bridge inside the torso. It's not large but serves the (probably) crucial purpose of distributing the weight onto the legs. Then the legs each contain a long Technic beam attached to the trestle and pointing downward (...) (21 years ago, 6-Aug-03, to lugnet.build.sculpture)
